Edit Resource: AvailablePeriodicWindows

Description

The AvailablePeriodicWindows attribute under EditResource defines the available or unavailable windows of a resource (depending on default availability). These windows occur on a regular basis, determined by a certain frequency, within a given time interval. When this command is sent, all previous periodic windows are deleted.

For more information on parameters, see the description of the Periodic Window Definition Form

Parameters

ParameterDescription
FrequencyFrequency options should be entered on their own and the options are as follows:
  • Yearly
  • Monthly
  • Weekly
  • Daily
  • Hourly
  • Minutely
  • Custom
StartThe format is YYYY/MM/DD_HH:MM:SS or YYYY/MM/DD_HH:MM:SS.fff
StopThe format is YYYY/MM/DD_HH:MM:SS or YYYY/MM/DD_HH:MM:SS.fff
CustomEpochEpoch time is only used if the frequency option is "Custom", otherwise the parameter should not be included in the command. The parameter should be on its own and in the format -- YYY/MM/DD_HH:MM:SS or YYYY/MM/DD_HH:MM:SS.fff.
CustomIntervalInterval is only used if the frequency option is "Custom", otherwise the parameter should not be included in the command. The parameter should be on its own and entered in numeric second(millisecond fidelity).
Period CommentA string of text of the comment itself in single quotes. May be an empty string if no comment is desired.
"Internal Windows" : "Offset"

The parameter value format is based on the format of the frequency:
Yearly: MM/DD_HH:MM:SS.fff (e.g. 11/12_10:04:05.100)
Monthly: DD_HH:MM:SS.fff (e.g. 12_10:04:05.100)

Weekly: DD_HH:MM:SS.fff (e.g. TU_10:04:05.100)
Daily: HH:MM:SS.fff (e.g. 10:04:05.100)
Hourly: MM:SS.fff (e.g. 04:05.100)
Minutely: SS.fff (e.g. 05.100)
Can also be a number in seconds (millisecond fidelity). The offset is always anchored at the top of the windows frequency. For example, an offset of 1 hour for a daily recurrence would be 1:00:00 of that day. The start of the period has no effect on the offset other than for custom definitions.

"Internal Windows" : "Duration"Enter as a number in seconds (millisecond fidelity).
"Internal Windows" : "Comment"A string of text in single quotes of the comment for the given inside window.

Examples

Everyday from 08:88:88 to 12:00:00 Ops Team will run 'Morning Shift' and from 13:00:00 to 17:00:00 will run 'Afternoon Shift'.
